The Holy Spirit Moves 1

By Revd 'Remi Tejumola

Good day to you friend. Today, I want to share some of the things the Holy Spirit had done in my ministry in retrospect. This is meant to inspire you. God can use any believer in Christ to do these things and more. In fact Jesus puts it this way:

John 14: 12-14
12 ¶ Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.
13 And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.
14 If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it.

Sometime, some people left the impression that the things that God used them to do is exclusive to them, but that is not really true. I know this is a strong statement, but it can never be stronger than what Jesus Christ, the Son of God, said above in John 14: 12. There is nothing that God had used someone else to do that He cannot use you to do - absolutely NOTHING! In fact, if you allow God to have His way in your life, He might even use you to raise the standard by using you to do what He had never used anyone else to do before. In spite of this fact, God is still very much ahead of everyone of us in that He is able to do things we can't even imagine, and each time He does such things, He reminds us that He is God and that He is always capable of doing things that are way beyond our abilities and comprehension.

Ephesians 3: 20-21
20 Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us,
21 Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen.

I do not want to give you the impression that I have some very great testimonies to share. Yes, they are great in that God used me to do them. I was a privileged vessel.

God pushed me into ministry work Himself. I didn't plan to be involved in it. He literally pushed me into it. I was minding my own business at the Faith Clinic holding inside the University College Hospital, Ibadan, in 1985. It was a deliverance service, and that was about the third or forth time I went there for the programme. I returned there because it was as if I was seeing the Bible live - very interesting! I saw people saved, healed, delivered from evil spirits (Demons), and baptised in the Holy Spirit, in Jesus name! That name works!

During that service, one of the workers came out, and announced, 'If you have come to join us to help minister to people, raise up your hand! (I didn't really hear what he said). My right hand just went up as if someone pushed it up! The brother said further, STAND UP! I stood up, and thought, 'What did he say?' (Then what he said dawn on me). I then thought that I will explain to him that I haven't really come to do that, thinking that, 'Maybe these other people have been invited specially for this.' But there was no room for explanation as we were ushered out of that auditorium to a place where we were prayed with in preparation to minister to people with various needs. That was really how it began with me in the ministry.

The programme of that ministry holds every week like that throughout the year and has never stopped.

A few weeks later, during the ministry's preparatory prayer session prior to ministering to the people, an elderly woman, among us, was suffering from a terrible migraine headache, stepped out into the middle and requested for prayer. The brother (Greg) leading us in the prayer session instructed us to jointly pray in tongues for her. When he rounded us off, he asked me to pray for her. I pointed my fore-finger towards her head and commanded, 'In the name of Jesus, headache, begone from her!' To my amazement, an unseen power picked her off the ground, and threw her away from me! She landed on the floor with a thud, got off the ground and shouted that the headache was gone! I looked at my fore-finger and thought, 'What?!'

A Soldier Gone To Headquaters

By Revd 'Remi Tejumola Shalom! A senior friend just went home to be with the Lord, PASTOR PATRICK EZEKUDE OBAZE. He was aged 78 years old. I got to know him in 1985 after I became a part of the Faith Clinic which was founded by Rev. (Dr.) I.K.U. Ibeneme of blessed memory. Uncle 'Bobo' Obaze, as was fondly called by Dr. Ibeneme, was one of the numerous workers that the Faith Clinic had in those days in the mid-80s. All the workers came from different churches and ministries, and were of various ages and giftings. In spite of his age, He was simple and humble. He was easy to get along with, and very kind. He loved Jesus and was as excited about Him as anyone of us was who were much younger than he was. Like other workers of the ministry he was involved in deliverance ministrations. He often traveled with Dr. Ibeneme for outside ministrations. He also had a special love to minister the Holy Ghost baptism. He had great success in this area of ministry. I know it because I was a...

The Holy Spirit Moves 4

By Revd 'Remi Tejumola Shalom! The works of the Holy Spirit varies, no one knows it all. But it's so exciting when one finds out about them. I was part of the Faith Clinic team that travelled with Dr. I. K. U. Ibeneme to minister at a campmeeting, December 1985. It was a deliverance session with the church on the outskirt of Lagos State. Our method of ministry was to ask individuals what problem they have, and we minister accordingly. After I had prayed with several people, it came to the turn of a brother. I went thru the normal process of our ministration and he stuttered and said, 'I am a stammerer'. I was flabbergasted because at that moment I didn't know what to do. But I just said, 'In Jesus' name, I plead the blood. Be healed!' and I took off to another place. During the testimony time, the brother said in very clear words, 'You know me. . . ' and the place became wild with excitement and shouts of 'Hallelujah!' rended the air!...

Faith and the Will of God

By Revd 'Remi Tejumola Shalom! Where exactly in the prayer of faith can we find the will of God? The will of God means what GOD expects, requires and demands, to be done by you. Paul said in his epistle to the Hebrew Christians, "... ye have need of patience, that, after ye have done the will of God, ye might receive the promise" (Hebrews 10:36). It is after you've done the will of God that YOU will experience the fulfillment of the promise. The will of God for you when using Mark 11: 24 is that part where Jesus said, "... when ye pray, believe that you recieve them ..." . Once you miss this part, you would have wasted your time and prayer. The will of God in this verse deals with, 1. The time of your prayer WHEN YOU PRAY, and, 2. What you believe when YOU PRAY. The other important thing about your prayer life that goes with the matter of the will of God has to do with your life. You must be a person of godly character. You must fear God and treat other peo...
